BUNNELL TAKES 1T.

Leases Carll's opera House For A
Term of Years-Will Run Bunnellss
Museum The Same As Before Also.
Manager Bunnell is enthusiastic over his
lease of the CARL Opera House, which he
perfected yesterday. The lease runs a term
of several years. He intends to put in a
large amount OF new scenery at an early day,
and to have the white walls tastefully deco
rated. The enterprising manager proposes
generally to put the house into frst-class
shape and to make all necessary improve
ments, as soon as the close of the spring sea-
son will allow it. He has not yet decided
upon the name for the house and intends to
run it on metropolitan ideas. He has Bern
hardt already booked for the house, beside
the attractions previously contracted for. He
intends that nothing but strictly frst-class
entertainments shall be given. But while
running the CARL Opera House he will also
continue to conduct Bunnells Museum as
heretofore, and the higher priced shows will
be at Carll's.

Following the banquet speeches were
made, the principal ones being by President
Clark, ex-President Bishop, Hon. Nathaniel
Wheeler, General Superintendent O.. N.
Shepard and Mr. Rockwell. Nearly all pres
eat added a word to the feast of reason.
President Clark in his remarks said it afford
ed him great pleasure to meet his guests, and
had taken this method to become better &C.
quainted with one and all of them. It was
also to further the work in which they are en-
gagged; to promote still further the harmony
already existing and to further cement a
common bond of union and fraternal feeling.
Mr.. Clark's remarks were exceedingly happy.
He seems to possess in a high degree both
the gift of talking well and the magnetic in
huence which distinguished his brother, the
popular and beloved Rev. E. L. Clark, well
remembered eloquent pastor of the North
church. As says an exchange: "When Mr.
Charles p. Clark, the new president of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford road,
first became generally known in Connecticut,
as in Massachusetts,, it was by his presence
about the legislature in the old Boston, Hart
ford and Erie days, when timely reorganiza-
ton was in the works. He acquired a facili-
ty for addressing committees, and is to-day
one of the most forcible and impressive
speakers on railroad matters in the country,
as well as one of the best railway managers
to be found anywhere.
The speeches of Messrs. Bishop, Wheeler,
Shepard and all were in like vein. Mr..
Bishop was as usual peculiarly felicitous in
his remarks Nathaniel Wheeler's genial
words made also an excellent impression and
Mr.. Sheppard spoke neatly and to the point.
All present had very pleasant time. The
meeting broke up shortly before midnight.

Capitalists are rapidly buying all the
available grazing and irrigable lands in New
Mexico which can be obtained in large tracts.
It has been demonstrated by series of fav-
orable years that the southwest, and New
Mexico in particular, is especially
adapted to the profitable raising of
cattle and all kinds of stock
Now that values in cattle are reduced to a
minimum, with certainty that prices in the
near future will show a marked appreciation
for the ranchman's products, the opportuni-
ty is ripe to engage in stock raising on the
open range, and men with capital are quietly
purchasing land and cattle properties and
preparing to take advantage Of the profitable
future which lies before the industry.
On the 9Th instant, the New Mexico Land
and Live Stock company, who owned the
Anton Chico grant of 37s, 900 acres, situated
in San Miguel county, sold the same to a
company of capitalists composed of Wilson
Waddingham and Charles F. Madison Of
New Haven. Conn; George F. Winters, of
Kansas City; T. B. Catron and 81. L. Waldo,
of Santa Fe, and William J. Mills and L.
Sulzbacher, of Las Vegas, N. N. The con-
sideration stated in the deed for the property
is 500, 900.

PROFESSORS BARBOUR OF YALE

Accepts the Prine1paIshiP of the Con-
gregatiORaI College of British North
America.
Professor Barbour's many friends have
already begun to congratulate him upon his
elevation to the principalship of theCongre-
gational college of British North America.
Although appointed by unanimous vote of
the directors in January, DIR. Barbour has
not until recently given them his decision.
Such conditions of acceptance as he laid be-
fore them the directors have cordially met,
and the new head of the college is therefore
officially appointed. This college, along
with others of a UNCONVENTIONAL order, al
though not forming part of the MeGil I'm
iversity at Montreal, is so affiliated with it as
to have its students in constant attendance
at the university classes. The college build
ings with the Principals official residence
overlook the McGill campus, all being built
under "The Mountain in one of the most
attractive parts of the city.
Although his official connection with the
college will date from the close of his en-
gagement at Yale, Principal Barbour does
not begin his duties at Montreal until
the regular opening of the college year in
September.

highly satisfactory Since his connection

Her cheeks were black, her hair was red,
And she used to go every week to buy dollars

Her name was nearly seventeen,
Her age was Mary Brown,
A very lovely girl was she,
And she met young man buying pound
OF butter for 25 cents at "a Church street,
Who lived in Allingtown.
Now Reuben was a nice young man.
He was chock full of jest:
And Mary loved him very dear
Because he was such a good judge or
Butter and always went to Hughes
Store to buy the best.
Now Mary Brown and Reuben Wright
Determined they would marry.
Three weeks ago last Tuesday night
They committed matrimony and now poor Reuben
Has to blIy Hughes, butter for two which makes

MONTE CRIsTO.
This great play will be presented in
Asheville next Monday night, by the
Carrie Stanley Company. We select the
following opinions of various prominent
Journals relative to Miss Stanley
The Philadelphia Times says: Miss
Carrie Stanley acted powerfully, looked
charming and dressed handsomely. Her
grace and powerful voice have never been
excelled, and she is a valuable acquisition
to the company.
The New York Clipper says: Miss
Carrie Stanley appeared before the larg-
est houses we have seen this season. She
is great favorite and always draws well,
and as an actress has no superior.
The Olean (New York. Times says !:
Miss Carrie Stanley as an emotional
actress is truly grand, but as soubrette
she is bewitching, as tragedienne
powerful and superb, and has but few if
any equals Mr. Chas. B. Burns, her
Leading man, is 4 very fine artist and the
support Was very good, and will meet
with success every where.

Is now crowded, but the magnifi-
cent addition being made will soon
be completed. when more than five
hundred guests can and will find
accommodations. Our other hotels
are doing equally as well, and every
day adds to the number of guests.
Iftwo more such hotels as Battery
Park could be erected in Asheville
by next winter, we believe all would
be filled by those who have hereto
fore wintered further south. Our
climate and scenery are far more
health-giving and attractive than
other points south of US can offer.
Let ample accommodations be pron
vided, and the viaitors will come.
Instead of having only FIVE or six
thousand people to come during the
winter, a. now, we ought to have,
and can have, from forty to fifty
thousand. Let our capitalists bestir
themselves, and keep up with the
demands of the times.

all of good character. but tyaryiag in their

are built with great cost. and equipped

tral, large. commodious excellently
furnished, with bountifui and ex. client
table, which lays no claim To style, but
which meets every demand Of comfort
and convenience. In this, the charges
do not exceed $40 per month, and range
from $50 to $40. Thase charges are the
rule here, with the exception of tae two
first named. This cannot be called
"steep" considering the character of the
these charges compare with those of

when the Purcell House charged from So
to 81 day which surpassed, in the latter
figure, the highest charges for which the
Asheville hotels are rebuked.
We are reminded in connection with
this hotel of exrerience of the late Judge
Cloud. This:plain, honest, unsophhstica.-
ted worthy, went to Wilmington to hold
the term OF the New Hanover Superior
Court, and made his headquarters at the
Purcell. Used to comfort at home in his
plain style, plenty of room, and unlimit-
ed fuel, he demanded ample room and
comfort. He was fully gratiied. lie
was allotted two rooms, one sleeping
apartment, the other a sitting room, and
he had roaring fires in each room; and
all went smoothly until the day of
reckoning came. Then the astonished
rage of the Judge knew no bounds. The
charge wss 81 day for each room, and
fifty cents extra for every fire made. The
atmosphere of the Purcell was sulphur
Gus, for month afterwards.
